I never sleep in a bra.. because it is uncomfortable to me, and because a lot of people said it can stop, affec, or stunt your breasts growth..
My friend's dad is a doctor and she said he told her that sleeping in bra may cause breast cancer?? (i highly doubt that is true)
But, i'm 15 and wear a 34A-36A..
and i really want mine to grow some more so i was just wondering..
THANKS! :)

it won't effect your growth or give you cancer. There is nothing wrong with wearing a bra to bed, if you want to. However, the skin where your bra touches needs time to breath, strecth & relax, if you wear a bra 24/7 this natural process does not happen. So, if you wear one to bed, try to go braless 1 or 2 nights a week. If your current bras are uncomfortable at night, try using a sports bra that is one or two sizes larger than you normally wear. This should give just enough support to keep your boobs from floping around at night, but not be so tight as to keep you awake.

No, sleeping in a bra will not stunt the growth of your breasts. There are bras designed just for sleeping in for those that feel more comfortable with doing that.
Also, wearing a bra all the time will not cause breast cancer to occur. It's a very old myth that continues to linger.

Wearing certain types of bras can cause breast cancer, whether you are asleep or awake.
Someone with an A cup doesn't need a bra. But any guy who complains that your breasts are too small doesn't deserve or need access to them.
It's my experience that women with smaller breasts have more sensitive breasts, and that breasts of any size can be a source of joy and entertainment for a loving couple.
So don't worry about it. You're fine.

I can't believe that a doctor told you that you could get breast cancer. Ridiculous.
I think it's more comfortable to sleep without a bra. I have a girl friend who sleeps in hers all the time; for years and years. She hasn't got any breast cancer.
You could trade the bra for a comfortable T shirt.

Wearing a bra to bed does absolutely nothing to you. It is just out of personal preference. And I know what you mean I am 16 and I am a size 34NA (NA stands for NEARLY A) urg. But yeah... Hope this helps.

no, this is just an old wives tale. mothers tell this to their daughters for... god know wat reason. but, you certainly cannot get breast cancer from this. do you really think your breasts know when its night time? no, so dont worry about it!
